Seeing Pink: The Queer Perspective in Photography, Co-taught with Ian Lewandowski

This workshop challenges students to approach their image making through an LGBTQ-oriented theme. Topics may include interior emotional content, upheaval and personal events, gender identity, politics, and desire-all as they relate to our queer lives. Artist Ian Lewandowski joins Richard for three of the nine sessions, commandeering another three himself. The course is composed of critiques, slide presentations (of both renowned and lesser-known photographers), lectures, discussions, individual meetings, and visits from LGBTQ artists. Participants develop a critical dialogue to support their work, refine their skills, and engage in discussion. One class session is devoted to one-on-one meetings with each student.
